Helen Flanagan on the benefits of ensuring one-on-one time with each of her children

Coronation Street favourite Helen Flanagan has given an insight into her life as a mum of three children as she sharing a super sweet snap of herself and eldest daughter Matilda on her Instagram. The soap star from Bury took to social media to highlight the benefits of spending 'quality time' with each of her children in turn.

Helen, 31, is doting mum to Matilda, seven, Delilah, four and toddler Charlie who she welcomed with her footballer fiance Scott Sinclair last March. Corrie's Rosie Webster actress posted a smiley photo on her Instagram Stories of herself cuddling Matilda.

In the photo mum and daughter wore matching strawberry print PJs. And she said: "I love this happy pic of me and my baby girl." Sharing her thoughts on being a mum she typed: "I think it's nice sometimes to break their routine when they are older and let them have the odd later night."

And she opened up further about their routine, saying: "I love to have one and one quality time with each of my children. Matilda always goes into school happier and Delilah has less tantrums and Charlie is more settled."

Last month Helen posted a selection of adorable pictures and a video clip of herself and Charlie. She celebrated: "15 months of my precious dream baby boy."

To mark Delilah's fourth birthday last month she shared a picture of herself carrying her second born as baby dressed in an all pink outfit with a tiny beret. "Can’t believe my baby is four this week," she said. "Throwback to when she let me dress her in berets and pink."

And, marking Matilda's seventh birthday, she shared a video clip of her eldest triumphantly holding up her two front teeth after they fell out. Another video clip shared was a self tape of Matilda showing off her acting potential as she reinacted a Corrie scene featuring Fiz Stape and her daughter Hope.

"Happy 7th birthday to my beautiful princess daughter Matilda no words for how much I love her," wrote Helen lovingly. "Swipe for a self tape she did also she’s an absolute angel I told her to be sassy."
